    System Shock Remastered Demo Available June 28th

    Yeah System Shock 1 was an OK game that was good enough to earn a sequel, but System Shock 2 was an epic cornerstone in gaming.

    Computex 2023: NVIDIA Keynote Address by CEO Jensen Huang

    What I'm trying to say is that AMD, and we'll see, but probably Intel has more of an advantage here than people might expect. Nvidia has announced and cancelled one chiplet launch already, and AMD and Intel are multiple generations into it.

    Computex 2023: NVIDIA Keynote Address by CEO Jensen Huang

    I mean 95 percent of the AMD/Intel/Nvidia market, not ASICs and stuff. Also doesn't Tesla use AMD already?

    Computex 2023: NVIDIA Keynote Address by CEO Jensen Huang

    What I'm saying is that we all know Nvidia is about to take 95+ percent of the AI market by the end of this year. But they are five years behind AMD in chiplets. If their main advantage is their software stack, and software can be quickly optimized by AI, how much of an advantage will Nvidia...

    Computex 2023: NVIDIA Keynote Address by CEO Jensen Huang

    Everyone's talking about Nvidia's software advantage in AI which will help them with early adoption, and they're pivoting from gaming to AI cards...even though AMD has a hardware advantage, especially with chiplets. The first industry everyone says will be knocked over by AI is software and...

    System Shock Remastered Demo Available June 28th

    That's a motherfucking massive gameplay element that we just don't get anymore, why would anyone want it gone? Somewhere in a box I have all my game notes from actually writing shit down.

    Weirdest Game you Ever played?

    Phantasmagoria was an unexpected way to be introduced to sex fetishes. From the lady that did all those King's Quest games here's Mephistophelian bondage fantasy.

    Somewhere I read that AMD wants you to uninstall the old drivers first. How many of you guys actually uninstall the old drivers first

    Every time, and that goes for most drivers in general if I can.

    Samsung 860 Evo 2.5" SSD suddenly died. Can I retrieve the data from it?

    Make a Linux-based boot drive with a USB stick or memory card and see what Linux sees, sometimes it performs better than Windows in that regard. That's all I can think of short of sending it off to a forensics company.

    Scumbag ASUS: Overvolting CPUs & Screwing the Customer

    Look, Tom's is doing some KYA. They have sources to protect, editorial slants to hide, and internal interests to promote. >t.I'm a fucking journalist and I used to work in the tech sector, I can read through all the bullshit because I've written the exact same bullshit, I'm just trying to point...

    Scumbag ASUS: Overvolting CPUs & Screwing the Customer

    This sort of statement is a KYA thing; "all vendors are impacted" can mean as little as "all vendors will get the new software and rules, whether or not they were over-volting and burning up parts." Even if, let's just assume for the argument, that ONLY Asus and Gigabyte broke the rules and...

    There is no language in that press release that assigns fault, takes responsibility, nor condemns nor indemnifies any party, Gigabyte or AMD, and legal made sure of that.

    Nvidia would like to correct the record on VRAM it seems lol

    Yeah I'm not impressed with their copying pricing, either. Which is an extremely polite way of saying they blew a serious opportunity to engender a swath of gamers just looking for decent hardware at a decent price. I know, servers and consoles are where the money's at, but long tail, fucking...

    Nvidia would like to correct the record on VRAM it seems lol

    Gimme a break the GPU portion of the Deck is teensy, it's smaller than it's current competition from AMD, and they still give it four gigs. We're talking about a discount super-budget APU with more memory per instruction unit than a $300 GPU. The whole deck, stripped down to the cheapest model...

    To put things into perspective, the Steam Deck has 4gb of memory for graphics.

    Starship Troopers: Extermination (12-Player Co-op FPS)

    Cool. I don't mind DLC in a multiplayer game, because you have gameplay leading up to it. With single-player, you have to go back and restart unless you somehow have your old game installed.

    Starship Troopers: Extermination (12-Player Co-op FPS)

    So, this confuses me: If I pre-purchase, will I have to buy the complete game separately? The main reason I never buy games on day 1 is because I hate paying extra for DLCs and junk. I just wait for the Most Excellent Platinum edition, but for multiplayer games, I do want to be there at the...

    Shareholders can sue for whatever reasons they want, no matter what the decisions they think are bad leadership. Like when VW got sued over Dieselgate. That was a similar type of fraud.

    Scumbag ASUS: Overvolting CPUs & Screwing the Customer

    There's still limits, it's not like all greed is mandatory. Like, they could probably make a lot of money laundering it, but that's illegal. There are still restrictions. And while this might not qualify, doing stuff that in the long-term that can damage a brand breaks that rule, and...

    I was going to write a whole thing about my time reviewing hardware and detail how if they were smart, Asus and the lot could scam the system, but I'm just going to keep my mouth shut.

    Scumbag ASUS: Overvolting CPUs & Screwing the Customer

    ASRock doesn't make the highest-quality products, but they offer tons of support and BIOS updates when other companies would just EOL and tell you to replace. Also they're quirky, and are always making things that most people would think are useless, but for the handful of people that need their...

    What condition is your phone in?

    Mine's like new but the battery is at 81 percent. It's an iPhone X in a Magpul case, their cases were the best and I have no intention of getting a new phone until this one goes EOL or Magpul makes a new run of cases.

    Mesh office chair vs. padded

    Pads hold farts in. This can be an asset in releasing the fart over time, but a liability if they completely capture the fart, then release it when you adjust yourself. A mesh chair will not help or hinder a fart it any way. It will simply release it to your office as presented.

    iPad Pro 12.9 2nd gen screen cracked. Is it worth it to repair it? Can it be repaired?

    But that's for a complete screen replacement, I'm betting that it's just the glass that's cracked, and if that's the case, it can be replaced for a lot less. But not by Apple. Seriously, ask Louis Rossman, he fixes these.

    Worst things you've done in (online) gaming?

    I got *really* good at Verdun. Also DoD:Source, CS, a few others, started going down the pro-gamer path (glad I didn't, there wasn't money in it back then) but I would target hackers, they were easy to spot, because they never move like regular players. I've made a few hackers rage-quit...

    AMD announces Ryzen Z1 Zen4 APUs for handheld gaming consoles with up to 12 RDNA3 GPU cores

    Yeah, but on the other hand, they just swept the handheld gaming market. Fingers crossed, we'll see some thin-and-lights come from this, too. Even potentially tablets, but for gaming.
